Hi,
RE: 2 x PowerConnect 7024 switches connected together over 10G fiber
I'm having trouble with routing traffic. 3 VLANs in total. I've got one vlan routing between switches over its own 10G trunk, but I'm unable to get two other vlans talking across the other 10G trunk.
default gateway set. ip routing enabled. ip addresses assigned to each vlan. default route configured. vlan1 is the production network. Ping connectivity between devices for each vlan on each independent switch is fine, however the switches cannot see each other on either of these two VLANs. Similarly the devices on the same VLAN but on opposing switches cannot communicate. Vlan 1 is the native vlan on the trunk with connectivity woes.
Switches were running 5.1.0.1. Now running 5.1.3.7 firmware. No change in symptoms.
is vlan 1 routable ?
in what circumstances is switchport mode general required rather than switchport mode trunk that I'm used to using.
Many thanks in advance.
